Portfolio update

 

 

Juridica, a leading provider of strategic capital to both businesses and the legal markets for corporate claims, provides the following portfolio update.

 

The Company is pleased to report that two if its investments, Case 5608-N and Case 0808-C, have made substantial progress through their judicial processes.

 

As announced in the 2010 Annual Report and Accounts, Case 5608-N, which is one of the Company's significant investments (and one of the invested matters under the loan facility to Fields Sullivan PLLC) went to appeal and recently had its plaintiff's substantive claims reinstated. The trial is now scheduled for later this year. This case has estimated potential damages in excess of US$1 billion. The Company, through its loan facility to Fields Sullivan PLLC, has a right to a significant investment return.

 

Case 0808-C is an investment the Company has in a patent infringement case. This investment consists of two separate cases both of which are multi-defendant. One of the cases recently won its Markman hearing (a pre-trial hearing whereby the construction of the patents are defined and determined) and is scheduled to begin trial in July 2011. Potential damages in the case are estimated to be in excess of US$200 million for which the Company is entitled to a 7% share. The second case remains in pre-trial status.

 

The above disclosure is being made to ensure shareholders are aware that material events are possible in the near-term. No assurance can be given that the above noted investments will actually come to full completion in the near-term or that the investments will generate profits when completed.

 

Richard W. Fields, Chairman and Chief Executive of Juridica Capital Management, the Investment Manager, said: "Today's statement provides further evidence that Juridica's portfolio is entering an exciting phase of development and maturity, in line with recent Company announcements. This supports our optimism that certain investments will come to conclusion and have the potential to generate significant returns."
